Property Analysis of Carbon Nanotube Composites with Agglomerations

碳纳米管具有优异的力学和物理性能，使得碳纳米管成为理想的复合材料增强相。碳纳米管增强复合材料可以在高端电子领域和自动化系统等领域发挥重要作用，但是如果无法解决碳纳米在基体中易团聚的趋势，碳纳米管的广泛应用将面临严峻的挑战。本文在Mori-Tanaka方法的基础上定量分析了碳纳米管的弯曲效应和团聚效应对碳纳米管的影响。 The carbon nanotubes could be the idealized composite reinforcements due to their better me-chanics and physical properties. Carbon nanotube reinforced composites can be applied in the high technology fields of electronics and automation systems. But, if the agglomeration of carbon nanotubes induced easily in a matrix cannot be solved, a wide application for carbon nanotubes is impossible. In this paper, based on Mori-Tanaka method, the effects of the waviness and agglom-eration on carbon nanotubes are analyzed quantitatively.
